How to scare me, Part 1.... (OFP proves it is becoming self aware.)

me.....
To set the scene.
I have a black PC, and I play in the dark. I have surround sound, and I play
it loud. I have 3D glasses. To put it short, I am IN the game when I play
it, completely immersed......
Well I had been playing my "Assassination" mission on the Vietnam map, and
managed as I usually do, to get cut down by a machine gun post...........
If you have played it you will know the custom deathscene......The picture
fades to a misty hillside facing into the morning sun, with silhouettes of
graves and crosses standing black against the velvet sky. The haunting notes
of "The Last Post" eerily echo around the area, and amongst the graves is
sat a girl, head slumped between her knees, deep in grief for a lost someone
somewhere............
The camera picks her out, and then through my loud surround speakers comes a
voice that is not of this earth........
"I..................LOOOOOOVE.............YOOOOOOOOUUUUUUU!"
Deep, bassy, and slooow, like a 45 played at 33.
My heart stops. I jump from my PC and back into my lounge. My wife is
resting on the couch....
"Did you hear that??"
The reply was affirmative and uninterested. But I knew it had really
happened...The girl at the grave, with impeccable timing, had of her own
volition told me she loved me, in a voice worthy of any dog of hell.
Was it another case of OFP becoming "self aware"??? Like the time, witnessed
by several here, when the AI PoW we were on our way to rescue suddenly
decided to make a break for it himself, and did so, and with quite some
panaché I recall.
Now then, I know what I THINK happened, but the timing is too much to be
coincidence, and the choice of phrase and method of delivery will trouble
for some time yet....
My theory is this. I was playing on my deddy server. Earlier I had played my
"MedEvac" mission, which has a custom deathscene too. One of the sound files
played in that is a young child saying "I love you".
The only thing I can think is that the sounds had somehow got twisted inside
of the server PC, and somehow got played later on, in another mission.
I have NEVER seen it before though. I just checked, the file names used are
the same. If they hadn't been I think I'd be on Prozac soon.....
